<Episode 65> My House

Si-eun looked up at me quietly when she parted her lips after a long kiss.

Her cheeks were flushed red, her eyes were blurred… … There was a state of small water droplets forming around his eyes.

It turned into a playful mood, but we exchanged proposals anyway. Si-eun must have been impressed in her own way.

As she tapped her head and whispered, “Shall we go back?”, Si-eun bowed her head and nodded silently.

So we moved together. The hands were tightly clasped.

The way back home felt very short, just like the way up.

“I’m home.”

As I entered the house, I greeted my mother, who was sitting in the living room, and walked up to the front door.

I had said that I would go out for a while, and in fact, it meant that I had only been out for a while. There was nothing particularly odd about it. Even so, Mom tilted her head as she took turns looking at the two of us.

What does the reaction mean?

“why?”

When asked in doubt, Mom put her hand to her lips and smiled.

“No, that’s… … . I wonder why both of them are smiling so wide. Why is your face so red again?”

“… … uhm.”

Did you have such an ugly face? I think Si Eun also has a knack for hiding her expression.

My mother only let out a voice saying, “Oh my gosh,” but didn’t ask deeply.

No matter how hard I try, my mother wouldn’t have expected that she would be on her way home from a proposal.

There’s nothing I can’t talk about honestly, but it’s also strange to say something first without even asking. It would be good to save it as a surprise for later.

Looking at the clock on the wall, it was already close to midnight.

I usually fall asleep later than this, but today I decided to prepare for a good night’s sleep. I made a promise to go to bed early from now on, but I can’t break it from the first day.

I made Si-eun take a shower first, and then I washed myself lightly.

When she returned to her room, Si-eun was sitting on the bed in her pajamas.

Not fiddling with my phone or looking at the book in my room. He just stood still and stared into space.

“what are you doing?”

“Stay still.”

“I see.”

It was our first conversation after the kiss.

How come there are only so many meaningless words? Si-eun smiled a little and sat next to her, and Si-eun hugged me tightly.

“It’s warm.”

“Because I just took a shower.”

“It’s summer, do you take a hot shower?”

“It’s good to drink warm water. Because I feel like my thoughts are organized.”

“Hmm.”

“you?”

“I do it with warm water too. Because it’s cozy and it feels good.”

“no wonder. You were warm too. So it seems.”

“I see.”

The conversation between the two was cut off like this.

Again, it was a pointless joke. I just came back from a proposal, and all that talk is going on. I thought it was pretty funny.

But strictly speaking, it wasn’t. Because we just came back from a proposal… … He was unable to hide his embarrassment. That’s why the words keep coming back and forth.

The time went on to feel the body temperature while leaning against each other.

The warm, tickling sensation was very pleasant, but now it seemed it was time to lie down.

He grabbed Si-eun’s arms and pulled them apart and got up from the bed. Si-eun didn’t say anything, but immediately went into the bed and took a seat.

“I’ll drag you.”

“yes.”

I turned down the switch in response to Si-eun’s answer, and I also went inside the futon.

Of course, I couldn’t fall asleep right away.

The original sleep pattern was long after, and above all, the feeling of exhilaration deep in my heart was preventing me from falling asleep. The joy of succeeding in the proposal never faded, so it seemed that he had to spend time with his eyes open for a while.

“there.”

Si-eun didn’t look much different. A few minutes after lying down, Si-eun spoke to me. It was a small voice, as if speaking in the ear.

I also turned down the volume to answer.

“why?”

“I thought about it for a bit.”

“yes.”

“When is a good time?”

“what?”

You suddenly ask a strange question. When asked, not knowing what was going on inside, Si-eun answered quietly.

“It’s a wedding.”

“… … ah.”

were you thinking about that

Unlike me, who didn’t want to touch the topic with a shy mind, Si-eun seems to have been seriously thinking about it. Maybe it was because he had been dazed before, or because he was immersed in trouble thinking about the future.

Am I being too relaxed? Is Si-eun too hasty? He opened his mouth, holding back the laughter that was about to pour out.

“Well. Maybe it’s winter.”

I don’t know, but a restaurant reservation should be made several months in advance. Even if I went home and prepared it right away, it would have taken four or five months.

Si-eun seemed to have made a similar calculation.

“I will. I have to prepare something.”

“yes.”

“You’ll have to make reservations for the wedding venue, too.”

“right.”

“I should take a wedding photo.”

“I will find out soon.”

“You have to decide where you want to go on your honeymoon.”

“I will do my best to practice swimming.”

“and… … .”

There, Si-eun paused for a moment.

“Let’s go see the wedding dress together.”

“Ugh.”

Si-eun’s voice when she spoke the word ‘wedding dress’ was very sweet.

It’s so lovely just to hear the sound. I can’t even imagine how beautiful it would be to see Si-eun in a wedding dress. Just thinking about it made the corners of my lips go up.

“You will look pretty no matter what you wear.”

In my opinion, Si-eun is a bit nauseous.

“How long are you going to do that?”

“It’s true.”

Si-eun let out a shuddering sound, but then smiled softly.

“It is.”

Look. I have no choice but to admit

smiled and spoke

“yes. it will be pretty very.”

After these words, the room regained silence again.

I turned off the lights and lay down to sleep. Laying down with Si-eun always ends up like this. Neither Si-eun nor Si-eun can sleep right away, so they talk about it.

Especially when it was quiet like this, Si-eun, who could not sleep, often looked at me silently.

Maybe today too As I turned my face with this thought, Si-eun was still looking into me.

Even when our eyes met, Si-eun looked straight at me without any reaction. A time that is like a snowball fight has passed. In the end, I opened my mouth first.

“… … You always seem to look at me whenever we lie down together.”

“You don’t always see it.”

“Are you always looking when I look back?”

“It must have been a coincidence.”

say all nonsense

“sit down?”

“I can’t sleep.”

“Would you like to get some dolls?”

“Are you kidding me?”

Si-eun frowned and looked at me.

to be ashamed. The habit of hugging a doll and sleeping is just cute. I don’t know how you feel, but for me, I only feel lovely.

“It’s a joke.”

When I answered with a smile, Si-eun pouted her lips as if pouting.

Si-eun usually relieves her anger quickly, but, well, it would be better to apologize as much as possible.

I approached Si-eun with such a heart… … I hugged Si-eun, who was lying towards me.

Si-eun, who was suddenly held in her arms, wriggled for a moment, but then stopped moving. Instead, he lifts his head and looks up at me.

“… … Why didn’t you?”

“Because I can’t sleep. If you hold me instead of a doll, you will fall asleep.”

“Idiot? This is why you hugged me.”

“How are you? It’s similar.”

“I really… … .”

Si-eun sighed as if she had nothing to say.

It didn’t look like he was going to push me. It wasn’t that she was holding her with strength, but Si-eun didn’t even budge.

it means it’s ok

He held Si-eun in his arms even tighter. This time, he accepted my hug without even reacting.

The soft touch, the warm body temperature, and the beating of my heart are all transmitted to me.

“It’s warm.”

Si-eun in her arms smiled as she spilled her small impressions.

“Because I just took a shower.”

After returning these words, he rubbed his face against my chest.

Tonight was such a warm night.

“I will come again next time. mother, father.”

“okay. our daughter. See you again.”

“yes. Come back next time.”

the next morning.

When Si-eun greeted her in front of the front door, her parents waved their hands with a lonely face. It’s been two days since we met, and you’re even treated like a daughter. What kind of magic did you use?

So, leaving the house where my parents lived, we went back to our own room.

The way home from subway – bus – subway was still annoying.

Luckily I wasn’t alone. After talking with Si-eun next to me or just watching, we arrived at a station near our house.

Get off the subway and go on foot.

“I feel like I’m back after a long time.”

Si-eun, who was walking side by side, said.

“It’s been a long time actually. When I went, I thought I would come back in a day or three. He went straight to my house.”

“I know. It’s already Sunday… … .”

With these words, Si-eun folded her fingers as if counting something, and after a while they met claps.

“ah.”

“why?”

When asked implicitly, Si-eun blinked her big eyes.

“I didn’t wear a maid outfit on Friday.”

I said something else.

“You can skip a week.”

“no. you promised I can’t break it.”

“I never made such a promise… … .”

After all, a promise to yourself is also a promise. That’s not very wrong. Above all, Si-eun in a maid outfit is very beautiful, so I did not intend to stubbornly reject it.

Seeing me like that, Si-eun folded her arms as if she was saying something.

“Besides, you like maid clothes. Wouldn’t it be nice if I wore it more often?”

“Even if not.”

How many times have I denied it so far? I don’t think I have the heart to admit it.

“Anyway, I’ll wear it this week instead of today.”

“okay. okay.”

When I answered bluntly, Si-eun exclaimed, and turned her head. Hmmm, I should have shown a little more joy.

Meanwhile, the entrance to our house appeared in front of us.

Even after hearing Si-eun saying that it had been a long time, I had no thoughts. Arriving like this, I felt nostalgic. At the same time, I felt somehow refreshed, so I stood there and stretched.

“You are finally home.”

“I know.”

After expressing agreement, Si-eun smiled and looked up at me.

“now… … This is our home.”

it’s our house

I smiled and replied.

“It was like that before.”

“Nevertheless, a new thought occurred to me.”

“Well.”

Well, it was.

Until a few months ago, Si-eun and I were strangers. They had never even had a conversation, so they barely recognized each other’s existence. To me, Si-eun is a girl who is reputed to be the prettiest in school. That was it.

Then Si-eun suddenly became our maid. I started doing things like cooking and laundry. We lived in the same house together, sometimes we had small fights, and we became close as we spent time together.

Then Si-eun became my lover.

Finally… … I decided to be my wife.

Finally, we really became ‘we’.

Si-eun looking up at me and smiling.

She took a step ahead of Si-eun and opened her mouth.

“Are you going to the supermarket? Come with me.”

Si-eun, who opened her mouth as if surprised by my words, raised the corners of her mouth.

“yes. Today, I will prepare a side dish that is good for the body.”

“okay. Because I promised.”

“Today I have to make eel rice bowl.”

“… … Do what you want.”

As soon as I gave up, Si-eun followed me with a skeptical smile.
